Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the interleukin 28B (IL28B) gene can influence the course of treated and untreated HBV infection. However, the correlation between different IL28B-SNPs and HBVDNA and quantitative HBsAg (qHBsAg) in chronic HBV infection remains to be fully elucidated. Patients with chronic HBV infection were analysed for qHBsAg, HBVDNA, HBV genotype and six IL28B-SNPs (rs12980275,...
